Technical Performance
These Fastrax Losi Micro-B Aluminium Steering Arms exemplify the kind of precision engineering that separates quality aftermarket components from inferior alternatives. Machined from premium-grade aluminium rather than injection-moulded plastic, these arms provide substantially improved rigidity and durability whilst remaining lightweight enough to preserve the agile handling characteristics essential to micro-scale vehicles. The precision engineering ensures that both arms are identically dimensioned, maintaining proper steering geometry and eliminating unwanted play or inconsistency that could compromise your vehicle's handling. The material choice is particularly significant for micro-scale RC vehicles, where even small improvements in component strength can yield noticeable benefits in real-world performance. Designed specifically for the Losi platform, these arms integrate seamlessly with the existing steering linkage and suspension components found on 1/24 Micro-B buggies and 1/28 Micro-T stadium trucks, ensuring that you can achieve immediate performance improvements without requiring additional modifications or compatibility adjustments. The aluminium construction also provides superior resistance to the stress and flex that occurs during aggressive driving, cornering at high speeds, and navigating rough or challenging terrain where plastic components might flex or break.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these steering arms compatible with all Losi Micro models? — These steering arms are specifically engineered for Losi 1/24 Micro-B 2WD Buggy RTR models available in white and silver finishes, and also fit Losi 1/28 Micro-T 2WD RTR Stadium Truck models in both colour options. If you own a different Losi model, please verify the exact model designation before purchasing to ensure compatibility.
- What is the advantage of aluminium steering arms over plastic? — Aluminium provides superior rigidity, strength and durability compared to plastic, which means your steering response will be more precise and consistent, and the components will last significantly longer even under aggressive driving conditions. The material is less prone to flex, cracking or breaking when exposed to impacts or stress, representing better long-term value for your RC investment.
- Are these suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely. These steering arms are an excellent upgrade for beginners who want to improve their vehicle's performance and durability. Installation is straightforward for anyone with basic RC maintenance skills, and the improved reliability means fewer breakdowns during your RC sessions, allowing you to spend more time driving and enjoying your hobby.
- Will these arms improve my vehicle's handling? — Yes, the rigid aluminium construction provides more immediate and predictable steering response compared to plastic arms, which can flex slightly under load. This means your vehicle will turn into corners more sharply and maintain more consistent geometry during aggressive manoeuvres, resulting in noticeably better overall handling characteristics.
- How do I install these steering arms? — These steering arms bolt directly onto your Losi Micro-B or Micro-T model using the existing steering linkage connection points. If you're familiar with basic RC vehicle maintenance, installation should take just a few minutes. Consult your vehicle's manual for specific guidance on steering component removal and installation procedures.
- What is the difference between these and the factory plastic steering arms? — The primary difference is material composition. Factory steering arms are typically injection-moulded plastic, whilst these Fastrax components are precision-machined from aluminium. This results in superior durability, better steering precision, reduced flex under load, and a significantly extended service life that makes them an exceptional upgrade choice for serious RC enthusiasts.
